In this embodiment, the control signal processing module 11 is electrically connected to a PWM signal pin PWM. The driving module 12 is electrically connected to at least one driving pin (not shown). The rotation speed signal providing module 14 is electrically connected to a rotation speed signal providing pin FG. In the present embodiment, the fan driving circuit 1 further includes an input voltage pin VIN and a ground pin GND, which are respectively connected to a dc voltage (not shown) and a ground potential (not shown) to enable the fan driving circuit 1 to operate normally.
The control signal processing module 11 receives a fan control signal transmitted by a control circuit (not shown) through the PWM signal pin PWM for analysis and processing, and converts the fan control signal into a processing signal. The control signal processing module 11 transmits the processing signal to the processing module 10. The processing module 10 provides a plurality of control signals to the driving module 12 according to the processing signals transmitted by the control signal processing module 11.
The driving module 12 provides a plurality of fan driving signals to the fan 2 to drive the fan 2 according to the plurality of control signals transmitted by the processing module 10. In this embodiment, the driving module 12 can be an H-Bridge driving circuit (H-Bridge) or a Bridge driving circuit or a three-phase Bridge driving circuit. The H-Bridge driving circuit comprises four Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET) or Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJT). In this embodiment, the driving module 12 is a driving circuit of a single-phase motor, and in other embodiments, the driving module 12 may be a driving circuit of a two-phase motor or a three-phase motor, which is not limited in the present invention. In addition, in the embodiment, the driving module 12 is electrically connected to driving pins (not shown) of the fan driving circuit 1 to transmit the fan driving signal, and in other embodiments, the driving module 12 may be electrically connected to a plurality of pins to transmit a plurality of sets of driving signals to the fan 2, which is not limited in the present invention.
The rotation speed signal providing module 14 generates a rotation speed signal corresponding to the fan phase variation according to the fan phase variation detected by an external hall detection module (not shown). In the embodiment, the rotation speed signal providing module 14 is electrically connected to the rotation speed signal providing pin FG of the fan driving circuit 1, and transmits a rotation speed signal corresponding to the fan phase change to the control circuit (not shown) through the rotation speed signal providing pin FG of the fan driving circuit 1. In other embodiments, the hall detection module may also be built in the fan driving circuit 1, which is not limited in the present invention.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a rotation speed signal providing module according to a first embodiment of the invention.
The tacho signal providing module 14 includes a first switch element M1, a second switch element M2, a third switch element M3, a first impedance element R1, and a first diode D1. The first switching element M1, the second switching element M2 and the third switching element M3 respectively have a first body diode BD1, a second body diode BD2 and a third body diode BD 3.
In the present embodiment, the first switch element M1, the second switch element M2 and the third switch element M3 respectively have a first terminal, a second terminal and a third terminal. The first end of the first switch element M1 is electrically connected to the third end of the second switch element M2, the second end of the first switch element M1 receives a fan phase signal transmitted by the processing module 10, and the first switch element M1 is turned on or off according to the fan phase signal to transmit a rotation speed signal from the first end of the first switch element M1.
A first end of the second switch element M2 is electrically connected to the rotation speed signal providing pin FG of the fan driving circuit 1 and a first end of the first impedance element R1. A second terminal of the second switch device M2 is electrically connected to the second terminal of the first impedance device R1 and the second terminal (cathode terminal) of the first diode D1. A first end of the third switching element M3 is electrically connected to a dc voltage source VDD. The second terminal of the third switching element M3 is electrically connected to a bias voltage VB. The third terminal of the third switching element M3 is electrically connected to the first terminal (anode terminal) of the first diode D1. In this embodiment, when the fan driving circuit 1 operates normally, the bias voltage VB continuously provides a stable voltage to the second terminal of the third switching element M3 to turn on the third switching element M3, so as to provide a voltage sufficient for turning on the second switching element M2 to the second terminal of the second switching element M2 to turn on the second switching element M2. At this time, the first switch element M1 is turned on or off according to the fan phase signal to generate a rotation speed signal, and the rotation speed signal can be transmitted via the first terminal of the second switch element M2 and the rotation speed signal providing pin FG of the fan circuit 1. In this embodiment, the first impedance element is a resistor. In other embodiments, the present invention can be modified according to other requirements, and is not limited in the present invention. In the present embodiment, the type of the first diode D1 is not limited in the present invention.
In some specific applications, the rotation speed signal providing pin FG is electrically connected to an external pull-up voltage (e.g., 12V dc voltage), so as to avoid that the fan driving circuit 1 and the external circuit are burnt out due to any current path inside the fan driving circuit 1 between the rotation speed signal providing pin FG and the dc voltage VDD under the condition that the external voltage of the rotation speed signal providing pin FG of the fan driving circuit 1 is higher than the dc voltage source VDD. Therefore, the first diode D1 is disposed between the third terminal of the third switching element M3 and the second terminal of the second switching element M2 to block any possible current path from the rotation speed signal providing pin FG to the dc voltage VDD. In addition, the voltage drop of the external pull-up voltage of the pin FG provided by the rotation speed signal due to the internal current path of the fan driving circuit 1 can be avoided.
In the present embodiment, the first switch device M1 and the third switch device M3 are a P-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (P-MOSFET), and the second switch device M2 is an N-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (N-MOSFET).
In this embodiment, an electrostatic discharge protection device (ESD component) may be disposed between the third terminal of the third switching element M3 and the ground potential. That is, between the third terminal of the third switching element M3 and the first diode D1, and the ground potential. In addition, an electrostatic discharge protection device (ESD component) may be disposed between the dc voltage source VDD and the ground potential. In addition, an electrostatic discharge protection device (ESD component) can be disposed between the FG pin and the ground potential. Further, an electrostatic discharge protection device (ESD component) may be disposed between the third terminal of the second switching element M2 and the ground potential, that is, an electrostatic discharge protection device (ESDcomponent) may be disposed between the third terminal of the second switching element M2 and the connection point of the first switching element M1 and the ground potential. The configuration of the esd protection device can be adjusted according to actual requirements, and is not limited in the present invention.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a rotation speed signal providing module in reverse connection according to an embodiment of the present invention.
In the present embodiment, the fan driving circuit 1 is in the reverse connection state, in which the rotation speed signal providing pin FG is connected to a ground potential (0V), and a ground pin (not shown) of the fan driving circuit 1 is connected to a dc voltage source VDD, in the present embodiment, the voltage value of the dc voltage source VDD is 5V. The voltage values shown in fig. 4 are the voltage values at the respective points in the reverse connection state.
In this embodiment, the second terminal of the third switching element M3 is 4.7V, the third terminal of the third switching element M3 is 0-0.7V, and the difference is 4.7V-4V, and the third switching element M3 is a P-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (P-MOSFET). The difference between the first terminal and the second terminal of the third switching element M3 is smaller than a threshold voltage, which is generally 0.5V-1V, and the third switching element M3 is turned on, so that the difference between the first terminal and the second terminal of the third switching element M3 is much larger than the threshold voltage under the reverse connection condition, and therefore, the third switching element M3 is inactive under the reverse connection condition, that is, the third switching element M3 is in the off state. The first end of the second switch element M2 is electrically connected to the rotation speed signal providing pin FG of the fan driving circuit 1, and is connected to 0V in the reverse connection state. The second terminal of the second switch element M2 is connected in series to the first terminal of the second switch element M2 through the first impedance element R1, and therefore the voltage thereof is also 0V. In this case, the second switching element M2 is also inactive, i.e., the second switching element M2 is closed. That is, when the fan driving circuit 1 is reversely connected, the first diode D1 can isolate the dc voltage VDD from the driving signal of the second switch element M2 to prevent the second switch element M2 from operating.
At this time, no matter the first switch element M1 is in an active or inactive state, since the second switch element M2 electrically connected to the first end of the first switch element M1 is in an off state (i.e., the impedance is very large), and the second body diode BD2 of the second switch element M2 does not allow the dc voltage VDD to pass therethrough, the dc voltage VDD does not pass through the first body diode BD1 of the first switch element M1 and the second body diode BD2 of the second switch element M2, and a path is generated with the ground potential of the speed signal providing pin FG in the reverse connection state, so that a large current is generated, and the first switch element M1 is not burned out.
In summary, in the fan driving circuit of the present invention, the rotation speed signal providing module is added with the second switch element, the third switch element (or a current source), the first impedance element and the first diode, so that the rotation speed signal can be normally output in the normal operation state, and the first switch element of the rotation speed signal providing module cannot be burnt in the reverse connection state, thereby effectively reducing the damage caused by the mis-wiring of the production line in mass production, more effectively reducing the cost and improving the safety in use.
The above description is only an example of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
